Globalization in my life is evident in the diverse foods I eat, the international news I consume, and the technology I use daily. Whether our world is becoming better for all is complex; there are winners and losers.
Contradictions and challenges include increased inequality, cultural homogenization, and environmental degradation, even as globalization offers economic opportunities and access to information.
